Abstract

A TENDON BOTTOM CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY HAS A RECEPTACLE (13) WITH A BORE (15) HAVING AN ANNULAR LOCKING PROFILE DIVIDED INTO SEGMENTS BY AXIALLY EXTENDING SLOTS (17). THE CONNECTOR HAS A HOUSING (25) THAT INSERTS INTO AND LOCKS THE RECEPTACLE (13). THE HOUSING (25) AND RECEPTACLE (13) HAVE MATING AN ANTI-ROTATION ELEMENTS. THE LOCK RING (33) HAS AN OUTER SUFRACE WITH AN ANNULAR LOCKING PROFILE DIVIDED INTO SEGMENTS BY AXIALLY EXTENDING SLOTS (17). THE LOCK RING (33) IS CARRIED BY THE HOUSING (25) INTIALLY IN THE INSTALLATION POSITION WITH ITS SEGMENTS ALIGNED WITH THE SLOTS OF THE RECEPTACLE (13). THIS POSITION ALLOWS THE HOUSING (25) TO BE FULLY INSERTED INTO THE RECEPTACLE (13). AN ROV THEN ROTATES THE RING FROM THE INSTALLATION POSITION TO A LOCKED POSITION, WITH THE SEGMENTS OF THE LOCK RING (35) ENGAGING THE SEGMENTS OF THE RECEPTACLE (13). ALTERNATIVELY, A SPLIT RING WITH ONE END FIXED ROTATES THE LOCK RING (33).
